Empowering Youth: Solar PV Training Sparks Green Job Opportunities in Delhi

Sungrow and CCSE, alongside Don Bosco Tech Society, launch a Solar PV Installer Training Programme in Najafgarh, Delhi, to equip underprivileged youth with essential skills for India's solar sector. This CSR initiative aims for a 70% employment rate for participants, fostering sustainable livelihoods and bridging opportunity gaps.

In a significant push towards green employment, Sungrow, an industry leader in PV inverter and energy storage solutions, has joined hands with the Centre for CSR & Sustainability Excellence (CCSE) to initiate a Solar PV Installer Training Programme in Najafgarh, New Delhi. This initiative, falling under Sungrow's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) commitments, focuses on imparting technical skills to underprivileged youth, fostering employment in the burgeoning solar sector in India.

The formal signing ceremony took place at Fiinovation's Delhi office, attended by notable representatives including Mr. Varun Haritash from Sungrow, Mr. Debopam Mukherjee, and Mr. Diwan Faiz from CCSE, as well as Father George and Mr. Pardeep Jindal from Don Bosco Tech Society. Aimed at 18 to 30-year-olds from economically weaker sections, the initiative promises 360 hours of structured training per batch of 30 participants. The curriculum, tailored to national skill standards, covers solar PV installation and maintenance, offering certification and job placement support. This ambitious programme targets a minimum employment rate of 70% for its graduates within months of training.

CCSE, with its proven track record in CSR projects, ensures structured, outcome-driven strategies while Don Bosco Tech Society, recognized for vocational excellence, provides local implementation expertise. This collaborative effort not only addresses the skill gap in India's solar sector but also promotes sustainable income pathways for communities historically left out of the formal economy. By leveraging the strengths of each partner, the programme is set to build a skilled workforce that aligns with the country's clean energy aspirations.
